Thanks for responding!Sorry if that was vague, I am new at this whole thing - this was my first build.I just mean the overall perfromance of my PC - I don't even understand how or if a GPU can even affect a systems overall speed ....speed with things like watching streaming videos on-line; loading web pages; recording music with my DAW (I don't think this would be affected by a GPU, but again - I don't know)...
